ABSTRACT:
A machine for packing objects into boxes comprises a platform comprising two horizontal flaps 15 on which an array of objects 11 to be dropped vertically into a box to form a layer therein is built up. When a complete array is sensed, a plunger 34 moves down to a position above or in contact with the array whereupon the flaps move first down to impart a vertically downward movement to the array and then flip quickly to a vertical position allowing the objects to fall past in their array with the plunger 34 maintaining position.
The operation of the flaps and the plunger is controlled by a rotating cam that drives a con-rod connected to the plunger.
